I bought one intending to swap switches right away. But I don't hate the box whites. The keyboard has a layer of PCB foam to tame the noise a bit. And there's plenty of room in the lower case for some extra sound deadening if you want. I have another 75% keyboard with holy panda tactiles in case I need a more stealthy sound profile.
Love the look of these and think it would be a great buy but I'm split between this and a Unicomp Mini M. Seems like this is the better value but the mini m just has a different cool factor.
If you're in the market, you're in luck: This one went on sale on Nov 20th for 10% off. Let us know if you end up picking it up and what you think. It's still a favorite around these parts.
"Tactical"? I think you mean "tactile." It's worth remembering that the keyboard AND the super buttons are hot-swappable, though I'd suggest using heavier switches for the supers so they return correctly (I believe the the super buttons use Gateron Greens stock, while the keyboard uses Kailh Box White V2s. The keypad is indeed being released as a separate addon, which is silly, as it could have made for a nice full layout, or even an XT or AT layout if they wanna go all the way with retro... Though maybe don't use the stepped keycaps.
2:50 I've been using the "Fami" version of this keyboard for a couple of weeks and I already know that I don't want to type on anything else. The travel and tactile/audio feedback are perfect for me. I was using a keyboard with Cherry MX Red switches before this; and while those are excellent, the Kailh Box V2 White switches in this keyboard feel nicer.
@@TheDigitalOverload I've had Gamdias Hermes Essential cherry mx blue switches for 8 years straight now I believe and it refuses to give in so it's about time to get a fresh new keyboard for me
The quality of their products are top notch. I only buy their controllers now and I was thrilled to buy a keyboard and mouse from them also. Nothing cheap and build like a tank.

Best keyboard ever. my favorite is NO RGB.
After the 8bitdo pro controller I got for 20 euro I now have my eyes on their products
This keyboard is definitely worth a look if you're into mechanical keyboards. The quality and attention to detail is impressive.
